Meth in the City
Description
Methamphetamine, or meth, has traditionally been a largely poor, white, rural phenomenon. However, recent laws have been passed restricting the sale of products containing pseudoephedrine, a common ingredient used in over-the-counter cold and allergy medications. As a result, small rural labs have been put out of business, leaving an opportunity for Mexican cartels to move the drug into large urban areas. This program focuses on the city of Atlanta, Georgia, a hub of both legitimate business and the meth trade.
